Paint: 900 Tuxedo Black, original 936 Ermine White
Automatic, 8-cylinder with air conditioning
Main engine components all original
Original fireproof installation under new carpeting
Underside, original and clean
All glass original except windshield
Runs strong and smooth, great cruiser
Factory AC: Original Frigidaire Compressor (rebuilt in 2009, uses R12) Pressure tested for leaks, but if you don't use the AC, the R12 slowly escapes
Interior: Red 490 AA vinyl covers (replaced with factory correct leather) have pieces of the original vinyl with the factory markings
Wiring: All new as of 2007
Body: Fiberglass is all very solid, but sometime in the vehicle's history it received a minor crunch to the right front wheel well. Looks perfect from the outside but you can see and feel the fiberglass repair inside the wheel well. Body paint has a few brush touch-ups here and there.
Speedometer: When the restoration shop performed the rewiring and replaced the speedometer cable, they accidentally broke the needle on the speedometer. They replaced it, but the new one has a different gear ratio and runs slower than actual speed (a spare speedometer is included, needs to be installed)
New windshield wiper motor, battery (5/22), alternator (5/22) radiator, hoses, fittings, shocks, AC fixed
Has paperwork of all that has been done on it plus paperwork from previous owner in Texas
Previous owner had affixed metal "fuel injection" decals on each side of the front. It is NOT fuel injection but the NCRS guy said it would only be a minor deduction off the grading if we left them on. If removed, it would be a bigger deduction because you would have to fill the holes and repaint.
Matching Numbers
As per Corvette Black Book and National Corvette Restorers Society info, vehicle was officially inspected by an NCRS judge in 2007. It was not "graded" by the NCRS but there are people that belong to NCRS from the K.C. Corvette Club that have said it is in amazing condition and that the numbers match.
